La lettera di San Francesco

Lettera di San Francesco

Inside Spoleto’s Cathedral a moving letter from Saint Francis to Friar Leo is displayed, documenting both the affection Francis felt for his brothers and the liberty he granted them. The text is:

“Brother Leo, wish thy brother Francis health and peace! I say to thee: Yes, my son, and as a mother; for in this word and counsel I sum up briefly all the words we said on the way, and if afterwards thou hast need to come to me for advice, thus I advise you: In whatever way it seemeth best to thee to please the Lord God and to follow His footsteps and poverty, so do with the blessing of the Lord God and in my obedience. And if it be necessary for thee on account of thy soul or other consolation and thou wishest, Leo, to come to me, come!”
(FF 249-250) (The Writings of St. Francis of Assisi, tr. by Paschal Robinson, [1905] pp. 132-133)
